The best and worst dressed: Oscars 2013

Nicole Kidman's black and gold L'Wren Scott frock has been a bit of an office splitter. Some love the liquid look dress while others are not so keen on the gold swirl detailing.

Overall this statement dress really suits Nicole - the mermaid cut was made for her incredible figure - but our only qualm is the swirls at the bottom which add too much fuss. L'Wren, if you're reading - don't forget that less is more.

In line with that thinking we especially love the single bangle and the soft waves - Nicole knows how to push the red carpet boundaries while still getting things right. An A* for effort!
